It’s really easy to find reasons to not go to church: You’re tired, you have other things you’d like to do, you were hurt by people at church once (or several times!), the list goes on and on. But God says that it’s important for us to meet together. As a Christian, you need the Church and the Church needs you! Don’t give up meeting together as some are in the habit of doing, but encourage one another. If you can go to church, GO TO CHURCH!!!
Bible Verses:
- Acts 2:42 | Because you need it.
- 1 Corinthians 12:12-22 | Because the church needs you.
- Hebrews 10:24-25 | Because God tells us to.
Family Time Questions:
- What are some things that can keep you from going to church?

Prayer:
Dear God, thank you for my church. Please help me to go as often as I can for my own sake and please help me to find ways to help others at church too. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
